Baucus Health Bill: 564 Proposed Amendments, and Counting

It took Sen. Max Baucus forever to come out with a proposed health care bill. And from the looks of things, whatever bill finally emerges from the Senate Finance Committee may not bear much resemblance to what Baucus proposed last week.

For a sample of what’s to come, check out the committee’s legislation page, which includes a whopping 564 proposed amendments spread over three categories (”reforming the health care delivery system,” “expanding health care coverage” and the ever-popular “financing comprehensive health care reform.”)
